Jay-Z's lawsuit against Tony Buzbee could leave the lawyer in an unimaginable debt up to $570 million‼️👀😳
In the lawsuit, Jay-Z revealed he lost $190 million in income and business opportunities stemming from the now-dismissed 2024 sexual assault claim involving him and Diddy.
It was revealed in the lawsuit that Buzbee demanded payment weeks before meeting the plaintiff, used unauthorised credentials to file documents in New York federal court, and fabricated a death threat story to justify dropping the case and avoid sanctions.
Jay-Z's team cites New York law on attorney deception allowing tripled damages, potentially raising the claim to $570 million, with the matter transferred to the Southern District of New York where discovery continues into 2026.
